pmc﻿Introduction

Gorochov (1999) established the genus Eurhaphidophora Gorochov, 1999 and assigned Eurhaphidophoranataliae Gorochov, 1999 from Vietnam as type species. Thereafter, nine species were described from China, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand and Malaysia (Gorochov 2010, 2011, 2012). Later, E.truncata Bian & Shi, 2016, E.curvata Lu, Huang & Bian, 2022 and E.fossa Lu, Huang & Bian, 2022 were published from China (Bian and Shi 2016; Lu et al. 2022), while E.pawangkhananti Dawwrueng, Gorochov & Suwannapoom, 2020, E.tarasovidoitungensis Dawwrueng, Gorochov & Suwannapoom, 2020 and E.apicoexcisa Dawwrueng, Gorochov, Pinkaew & Vitheepradit, 2023 were discovered from Thailand (Dawwrueng et al. 2020, 2023).

Up to now, the genus Eurhaphidophora includes fifteen species, four of which are recorded from China. Here, we describe a new species E.dulongjiangensis Zhu & Shi, sp. nov. from China, describe the females of E.tarasovidoitungensis Dawwrueng, Gorochov & Suwannapoom, 2020 and E.fossa Lu, Huang & Bian, 2022 for the first time, and propose E.curvata Lu, Huang & Bian, 2022, syn. nov. to become a new synonym of Eurhaphidophorapawangkhananti Dawwrueng, Gorochov & Suwannapoom, 2020.

﻿Materials and methods

Specimens were collected by hand at night and preserved in 75% ethanol. The genitalia were dissected with an insect needle and then put in 10% KOH solution to clean the tissue. Images were taken with a Zeiss AxioCam ICc5 digital camera attached to a Zeiss Stereo Discovery V12 microscope and edited with ADOBE PHOTOSHOP 2022. With regard to the scheme of arrangement of spines on the tibiae and hind basitarsus we follow Gorochov and Storozhenko (2015) and for measurements we follow Zhu et al. (2022). The type specimen is deposited in the Museum of Hebei University, Baoding, China (HBU).

Posterior margin of ninth abdominal tergite with small projection. Epiproct lingulate. Ovipositor slightly curved upwards, apical area of ventral margin denticulate. Subgenital plate nearly triangular, apex acute.

Coloration. Body light brown. Eyes black, ocelli pale.

Measurements (mm). Body length: ♂25.50–26.8, ♀24.68–25.40; length of pronotum: ♂6.54–6.90, ♀6.58–6.60; length of fore femur: ♂7.52–7.80, ♀7.50–7.76; length of hind femur: ♂17.06–17.66, ♀17.38–17.96; length of hind tibia: ♂15.58–15.90, ♀15.02–15.50; length of hind basitarsus: ♂3.22–3.26, ♀2.96–3.20; length of ovipositor: 12.02–12.80.

Distribution.

China (Yunnan); Thailand.

Remarks.

Dawwrueng et al. (2020) described E.pawangkhananti from Thailand. Then, Lu et al. (2022) published E.curvata from China and thought it was close to E.ampla Gorochov, 2010 and E.orlovi Gorochov, 2010. Dawwrueng et al. (2023) compared E.curvata to E.pawangkhananti, which is very similar to E.curvata. The two species can be distinguished by the characteristics of the male epiproct and the subgenital plate. However, the male epiproct of E.curvata is also greatly similar to that of E.pawangkhananti, which is cup-shaped, broad and rather short with an apical process that is very narrow and slightly curved forward in lateral view (Fig. 5). When the apical part is not fully exposed, the posterior margin of the epiproct appears to be widely rounded (Fig. 4F). Moreover, it is not obvious whether the posterior margin of the male subgenital plate between its styli is convex or almost straight, so it cannot be used as the main distinguishing character. Therefore, we consider E.curvata Lu, Huang & Bian, 2022, syn. nov. to be a new synonym of E.pawangkhananti Dawwrueng, Gorochov & Suwannapoom, 2020.

﻿Discussion

The subfamily Rhaphidophorinae includes eight genera (Cigliano et al. 2024). The genus Eurhaphidophora can be distinguished from other genera by the structure of the ninth abdominal tergite and the male genitalia (Gorochov 1999; Lu et al. 2022; Dawwrueng et al. 2023). The other genera differ in the form of the male epiproct or the abdominal tergites (Bian and Shi 2016; Qin et al. 2018). However, the classification of some species remains controversial, such as Neorhaphidophoralongispinula (Bian, Zhu & Shi, 2017). Up to now, the classification of the subfamily Rhaphidophorinae is based on morphological characteristics, without molecular evidence. We cannot judge whether the distinguishing characters of the classification system for the genera are appropriate. Moreover, the phylogenetic relationship between genera is still unclear. Further studies on the subfamily Rhaphidophorinae based on more evidence are needed.
